About this book
After 75 years of independence, India has much to be proud of. We are the world's largest democracy and the fastest-growing major economy. However, we face significant obstacles that impede both individual well-being and overall growth, such as education and skills, health and nutrition, public safety, justice, social protection, and employment.
This fundamental work examines India's governance issues, particularly in providing key public services, and demonstrates how they are impeding India's progress. Drawing on a plethora of research and practical insights, it offers realistic, evidence-based ideas, with a focus on state-level reforms as crucial to India's growth.
Accelerating India’s Development is addressed to all Indians―leaders, officials, entrepreneurs, teachers, students, citizens, and civil society―and provides an urgent call to action. It argues that building a more effective state is the great unfinished task of Indian democracy, because quality public services are key to translating the political equality of ‘one person, one vote’ into greater equality of opportunity for all Indians.Every chapter exemplifies the author's commitment to closing the gap between scholarly research, popular awareness, and effective governance. This book exemplifies cautious optimism and the notion that, with the correct public structures in place, India can see unparalleled prosperity and socioeconomic richness over the next 25 years.
